Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un système pour réaliser la détection et le contrôle d'applications dans une session IP-CAN prenant en charge la double pile. Le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes : une PCRF informe une TDF d'une adresse IPv4 au moyen d'une session TDF établie par la session IP-CAN si une passerelle où est située la PCEF ou un autre élément de réseau externe attribue en outre l'adresse IPv4 selon une demande d'un UE et l'UE accède à un service en utilisant l'adresse IPv4, après que l'UE a établi la session IP-CAN et accède à un service en utilisant l'adresse IPv6 dans la session IP-CAN prenant en charge la double pile ; et la TDF effectue la détection et le contrôle d'applications (ADC) sur des données de service dont l'adresse source et / ou l'adresse de destination est / sont l'adresse IPv4 selon une règle d'ADC pertinente pour la session TDF. Au moyen du procédé selon la présente invention, la PCRF ne lance plus de demande d'établissement d'une nouvelle session TDF, de sorte que la détection de service visant la même session IP-CAN n'a besoin d'être signalée qu'au moyen de la même session TDF, ce qui économise les ressources tout en réduisant la surcharge de signalisation.
